Chapter 43: The Governor's Favorite Color
Chapter 43 The color that the prefect likes
After being reminded by Lilac, Shang Ruonan looked at the bamboo pole on it, patted his head and said:
"Oh, you see I'm stupid! It seems that I fell really last time, and I made this brain stupid. ”
Lilac immediately asked worriedly:
"What's the matter, miss, does your head hurt again?"
"Oh, no, no, let's go. We passed. ”
Shang Ruonan looked at the courtyard wall, didn't say anything, and went to the main courtyard with Lilac. Sure enough, my father was pressing my mother's leg. I saw my daughter come in. Shang Dongliang was still pressing, but Shu Yunniang was a little embarrassed. Get up and smile:
"Little Si'er, come here. Don't say it, you pressed your mother's leg that day, and my mother felt that the leg was not so heavy. I can't walk anymore every afternoon. So, just now your dad ......"
Speaking of this, Shu Yunniang was a little embarrassed. After all, it's always not good for couples of all ages to act like this in front of their daughters.
Shang Ruonan smiled:
"Mother, actually, as long as you are comfortable. Whether it's me pressing it for you or Daddy pressing it, we want you to be more comfortable. ”
Shu Yunniang's fair face showed some shy flush, and she glanced at Shang Dongliang. Look at the daughter of the road:
"Is there something wrong with you coming?"
Shang Ruonan also squatted down and pressed his other leg to his mother:
"Dad, mother, I want to say something, if you don't think it's okay, forget it."
"You say."
Shang Dongliang sat up straight from the couch and looked at Shang Ruonan. Shang Ruonan said:
"I just went to see the yard where the dyeing room was made. It is separated from our inner courtyard by a wall. I wonder if I can open a door to that wall so I can get in and out? ”
Shang Dongliang thought about it before he spoke. Shu Yunniang also sat up straight with her hands. looked at Shang Ruonan seriously and said:
"No way!"
Shu Yunniang's refusal was very thorough and direct!
This made Shang Ruonan a little surprised, usually looking at this mother is still very good at talking, and she is also a weak woman.
Shu Yunniang patted Shang Ruonan's shoulder and said:
"Although you want to make it convenient to dye cloth, but think about it, you still have sisters in the inner courtyard. Let others know, saying that there is no distinction between the inner and outer courtyards of our family, which is not good for the reputation of our girls. It can't be done. Just now your father was saying that I would give you a man's clothes to go out to do things, and I think it's okay. ”
Shang Ruonan thought about it and nodded, in the days he came here, he could be considered to understand. It's hard to get a woman out! Restricted by the general environment, women can only marry and teach children at home.
This father of mine is wonderful, and he can agree to do something by himself. Maybe one is because he has really had a financial crisis recently, and the other is that this color matching thing can only be completed by Shang Ruonan, so Shang Dongliang will agree to Shang Ruonan walking out of the second door.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruonan lowered his head and said:
"I'm sorry, mother, I didn't expect it."
Actually, Shang Ruonan wanted to open the door over there, but he didn't want to see the dead fish eyes of Mrs. Wu every day when he went in and out. Think about it, you are the master. It seems that it is time to act like the master.
Back in the small courtyard, Shang Ruonan was not there, and the sisters still gathered here and did not leave. And the eldest sister and the fifth sister are holding the white cloth and preparing to tailor. Shang Ruonan took a closer look and said:
"Did you get the size of the prefect?"
The eldest sister nodded and said:
"Yes, Aunt Juan brought it."
Shang Ruonan looked at it and said:
"Second sister, then which color do you say I matched that day that she liked a little?"
Wanglan walked over again and looked at the various colored papers left over there. Road:
"Lishu's temperament is just the opposite of Panlan, Lishu likes to be quiet, that is, friends get together, and she is also the one who sits quietly and listens to you. But at the same time, she also has many friends, because she is kind and everyone likes to associate with her. That's why this time she celebrated her birthday, so she invited us all to go. ”
"And does she have a favorite color?"
Shang Ruonan thought for a while and asked. Wanglan thought about it and said:
"What color does she like?" I thought, oh, by the way, when we were talking together by the lake of the Liu family, she suddenly said, 'It would be nice to be able to turn the color of this lake into clothes.' ’”
"The color of the lake? What color is it? ”
Shang Ruonan didn't see the lake when he came here. I haven't been out before, so I don't know what color the lake is. I don't want to look at it from a modern point of view, the lake is all black, at most it has a little better water than green.
Wanglan Road:
"It was spring, and we were looking at the willow trees by the lake, and the color of the lake was the same as the color of the leaves, no, there was a little bit of sunlight, and it was a little dazzling, and it seemed to be a little yellow in the green. It's so good-looking, I can't even tell the color. ”
Shang Ruonan thought about it, it should be the kind with a little matcha green. Think about it:
"Second sister, wait a minute, I'll go and match the color right away. Look like it's not what you say. ”
Shang Ruonan went to the specially placed paint over there to try to match it, and at the same time made a record. See how much of each color is used.
Then the color is drawn onto a piece of paper with a pen, and then let the second sister take a look. The second sister looked at it and said:
"It's a bit similar, but can it be a little brighter, that is, a little more yellow."
Shang Ruonan added some yellow to it, and after adjusting it, he took a piece of paper to color it and dyed it on the paper for the second sister to see. The second sister took it to the sun outside and looked at it:
"That's it! That's it! ”
Shang Ruonan nodded and said:
"Isn't this a bit like the color of a willow bud, let's call it willow yellow? Anyway, you also found it in the Liu family. ”
The second sister laughed and said:
"Okay, that's it. You can do this color for her, and I will surprise her when I send it. ”
Once you have an explanation, it will be easy to do. Shang Ruonan asked Lilac to bring a larger basin, and he mixed the color there, and when the eldest sister cut it out, he could color it!
Shang Ruonan was here to exchange colors, and the second sister went to discuss with the eldest sister what style to make. Ruonan, the style dealer of the clothes here, really doesn't understand, anyway, after this incident, she is going to ask Lilac to make her a dress with smaller sleeves. It's convenient to do things, otherwise even men's clothing has big sleeves, and it's really hard to do things.
Fortunately, the eldest sister has some talent in cutting, and after a while, with the consultation and help of several younger sisters, the clothes were cut out, and they were all lit up at this time. The girls went to call a few young ladies for dinner. The sisters ate together again.
After eating, they went back to their respective hospitals, just waiting for tomorrow to see how Shang Ruonan dyed the flowers of this dress. And Shang Ruonan also has to think about it, what kind of pattern to make on this dress?
